The symphony is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, triangle and strings.Schumann especially expanded the use of timpani in the symphony, using the unusual tuning of B ♭, G ♭, and F in the first movement, and D, A, and F in the third, at the suggestion of Schumann's cousin-in-law, Ernst Pfundt.
The four movements last around 25 minutes: Vivace (4–5 mins.) Andante (8–13 mins.) Moderato (8–9 mins.) Vivace (1–2 mins.) The outer movements serve in a way as prelude and postlude, with the middle two comprising the bulk of the concerto. The Andante is reflective and makes rhetorical use of the strings, expanding with Romantic grandness.
